How to recover lost Calendar on iPhone?
Lost or accidentally deleted Calendar can be recovered by Apple’s backup utilities. However, sometimes backups too may not restore Calendar. Then an iPhone data recovery software is the only solution.
Methods to recover deleted/lost Calendar on iPhone
- Restore from archive of Calendars via iCloud.com
- Restore with iPhone recovery software
- Recover from iCloud or iTunes Backup
1. Restore from archive of Calendars via iCloud.com
Apple creates frequent backup for the Calendars and Reminders apps and saves it to iCloud.com as archives. These archives can be used to restore deleted calendars.
The method is applicable on all iPhone models including the latest X, XS, XS Max, and XR.
In Steps: Restore missing iPhone Calendar via iCloud.com:
- Log in to iCloud.com in browser
- Click Settings
- At the bottom left side under Advanced, click Restore Calendars and Reminders
- List of Calendar archives appears. Click Restore next to the date before you deleted your calendars and reminders.
After the restore completes, you will receive a notification on iCloud.com and in email.
Note: These archives will not contain shared information like if you have had invited others /shared cancelation of any event. You will have to recreate and reissue the invitations.
2. Restore Calendar with iPhone recovery software

Conclusion
Apple has tried to address the users’ data loss issues through multiple backup solutions — iTunes, iCloud, and iCloud.com.

This feature, along with an exceptionally high data recovery success rate, make the software an essential utility for iPhone users.
